For Pizza Opens in Medford Square

A new spot that offers their own take on a beloved South Shore food item has opened a few miles north of Boston.

Eater Boston is reporting that For Pizza is now open in Medford Square, taking over the space on High Street that had been home to GNP House of Pizza. The website for the eatery says that "Our pizza is most similar to south shore bar pizza, but with our own twists (and improvements:)," with the thin-crust pizza being cooked in lightly-oiled pans "for an almost slightly caramelized taste."

Bar pizza is mainly found south of Boston, with very few options for it west and north of the city; one place not too far from Medford that offers it is Hot Box, which is located at Bow Market in Somerville, and also offers North Shore-style roast beef sandwiches.

The address for the new For Pizza is 51 High Street, Medford, MA, 02155. Its website is at https://www.forpizza.com/
